Good night and good luck: I finally got around to seeing Good Night and Good Luck, and thought it was great — although there was so much smoking in the film, my eyes started hurting. In a strange bit of personal trivia, I was fascinated that the film focuses on three or four episodes of Edward R. Murrow’s (and Fred Friendly’s) See it Now that happened to air during the month I was born.

Generation @, ugh: Obviously, I think the whole social networking, social media nexus is a major phenomenon in our lives and business and world. But please, don’t try to hang a goofy “generation” title on it like “Generation @” and “MySpace Generation.” The new BusinessWeek cover story throws both of these buzz titles against the refrigerator to see which will stick.
Here’s my deal: If either of these goofy “generation” tags gain legs, can we drop the whole “Web. 2 meme” as a tradeoff?
